Habit - Tip My Crown

It's getting hard right now
Can't turn back now
I gotta keep my feet moving when I fall back down
You can't hold me back no
Hold me down so
looking for another way around you now
Yo
This is my life so I tip my crown
I gotta pick my cross up and stand my ground
Not a doubt in my mind
Or fear right now
I gotta do what I can while I'm here right now
Yo
I take a breath in heavy from running away
But what's gonna happen if I lose my way
I'm taking three steps back with every move I make
I'm making everybody hate me for the words I say
Hey
I look back and wonder what it could've been
I'm taken back from every time that you would call me friend
I still laugh at the fun that we were having then
Sometimes I wish that we would never an end
But here I am standing on the other side
I'm looking back to every single time you lied
Inside I look why can't I get you out my mind
I'm losing mine and my life is running outta time
I gotta take a stand I gotta leave a mark
I gotta make a fucking difference in the way I walk
And You can go on quitting but Ill never stop
I'm running hot on the block till I drop
It's getting hard right now
Can't turn back now
I gotta keep my feet moving when I fall back down
You can't hold me back no
Or hold me down so
Looking for another way around you now
Yo
This is my life so I tip my crown
I gotta pick my cross up and stand my ground
Not a doubt in my mind
Or fear right now
I gotta do what I can while I'm here right now
Yo
Too many years I fought for the truth
And now that I'm here why do I still loose
Fucking still prove that I'm still new with my steel shoes
Cuz I can't get out of the box that I built you
My self doubt is the enemy to my success
I'm in the past stuck when I know this ain't my best
Then I get stressed feeling like I'm helpless
But I'm so blessed l gotta get this off my chest
It's getting hard right now
Can't turn back now
I gotta keep my feet moving when I fall back down
You can't hold me back no
Hold me down so
looking for another way around you now
Yo
This is my life so I tip my crown
I gotta pick my cross up and stand my ground
Not a doubt in my mind
Or fear right now
I gotta do what I can while I'm here right now
Yo there's nobody that's gonna hit as hard as life
Just last week shit I hit the ground twice
Started running thinking that I could escape
But now I know that my struggle is my fate
Who would I be if I never learned to live again
What would I do If I never learned how to defend
What would happen If I never made the choice
What would happen If the world never hears my voice
It's getting hard right now
Can't turn back now
I gotta keep my feet moving when I fall back down
You can't hold me back no
Hold me down so
looking for another way around you now
Yo
This is my life so I tip my crown
I gotta pick my cross up and stand my ground
Not a doubt in my mind or fear right now
I gotta do what I can while I'm here right now
I know there's more to this life I can feel it in my blood
There's more than the broken hearted cry from the hood
I know there's more to the ghetto than just filth and poverty
I know there's more to the struggle that Ill never fully see
More to the land of the brave and home of the free
Where all the workers become slaves and freedoms a dream
And say someday I'll make it one day I'll be free
But then some say I'm crazy when I'm hoping for wings
And hoping for dreams of never living the struggle again
Never have to think twice about paying the rent
Never have to ride the bus cuz your car got towed
Never have to lose sleep when the bills come home
Yo
So whos crazy
Me
For dreaming big
I think it's you for being cool with this fucking way we live
And it's so hard but I can't turn back now
I know I gotta keep a smile when I fall back down
It's getting hard right now
I can't turn back now
I gotta keep my feet moving when I fall back down
You can't hold me back
Hold me down
looking for another way around you now
This is my life so I tip my crown
I gotta pick my cross up and stand my ground
Not a doubt in my mind
Or fear right now
Gotta do what I can while I'm here right now
